    Melon & basil granita

    • Preparation time: 15 minutes + mixing and overnight freezing

    Serves: 4-6

    Ingredients

    1 Cantaloupe melon
    ΒΌ x 25g pack Thai basil, leaves only
    100g icing sugar
    1 lemon, juice

    Method

    1. Halve the melon, scoop out the seeds and discard; slice into wedges, then cut away the skin and roughly chop the flesh. Put the melon into the bowl of a food processor with the rest of the ingredients and whizz until smooth.
